Now I'll have to setup an installation to test everything and confirm
correct software operation.
I would like to test the new RPMs on a server (CentOS 5.8 x86_64) where
there is already a Postfix v2.8.2 built from source (following
directions:
http://stevejenkins.com/blog/2011/01/building-postfix-2-8-on-rhel5-centos-5-from-source/)
running.
Is there a way to completely uninstall this version?
I tried: "make uninstall" but:
"make: *** No rule to make target `uninstall'. Stop."
So, probably there is no such option?
Is it safe to simply "rpm -Uvh" the new RPMs? This I guess will simply
overwrite most (practically all) of the existing files, which were
generated from source (under the condition that both [built-from-source
and new-RPM] are using the standard CentOS/RHEL postfix paths)?
Thanks,
